Semen allergy the seed of many problems
By Dr. Kunio Kitamura, special to the Mainichi, 2007nov10
...I recently received a letter that made me laugh...
''...I just don't seem to match with my husband's semen. Inside my vagina it's always itchy. And it gets even itchier if we have sex after my husband has been drinking. I've talked to several of my friends about this problem, and nobody else is going through anything like it. Is it possible our body fluids just don't get along together?"
The symptoms the woman described in her mail appear to be a case of semen allergy, an extremely rare affliction....Semen allergies can also affect more than just the genitals. A semen allergy can bring about the same reactions as hay fever, with coughing, sneezing, rashes all over the body and itchiness...
